SC soccer league bans cheering, parents must be silent
A SC soccer league is working to get fans’ attention by banning cheering, good and bad, when the season starts this fall.
The South Carolina Youth Soccer Association is starting “Silent September.” Burns Davison, who’s over the league’s Rules and Compliance, said the board took this step because parents weren’t paying attention to the current rules.
Silent September requires parents and visitors to be silent during the game. According to a memo there will be “no cheering, no jeering; just enjoy your player and the game that they love.” If parents ignore warnings to remain silent, they will be dismissed from the game. Parents will have to sign an acknowledgement of the code of conduct.
After Silent September, there will be periodic Silent Saturdays and Sundays as a reminder.
The SCYSA has approximately 30,000 youth statewide.
This is nothing to do with football. This is to do with Americans. Americans just got more cucked. SAD!
how the fuck do they enforce this when nobody follows it
im sure a ton of people will be so happy they paid to sign their kid up for sawker when they get ejected after celebrating a goal
sounds like a great decision which will result in no unnecessary issues at all
parents who never stop yelling at the referee and just generally never shut the fuck up deserved to get ejected tho
There is nothing gayer than calling football "soccer" though

could be worse, could be calling spics as "americans"

Do that and it's the team that will suffer the sanctions, which won't be light.
It worked for the "EEEEEEH PUTO" chants.
>tries to laugh at soccer
>everyone laughs at Americans instead

This is just over there, that has nothing to do with the sport you mong.

Why are South Carolinians such pussies?
Didn't they ban headers back then too?
my understanding was this was designed to help the younger refs especially the young teens referring weekend games from being screamed at by parents.
their turnover rate for kids taking jobs as linesmen and etc was low because they didn't know how to deal with the parents, so none were coming back the following season.

The should have taught the kids how to better deal with parents. This rule isn't gonna be followed by fucking anyone
american parents seem to be absolute cancer though. winning a freaking youth soccer match doesn't fucking matter, at all, they should be worried about whether their kid is developing their skills and body, winning is nice but treating that shit like it's important, like it's worth cursing refs over, it's not.

No, that was something that a single under-10 team did.

The problem is the type of parents that soccer attracts. It's a sport for spoiled middle and upper class white kids whose parents don't want their precious baby to get hurt. These are the same parents who will yell at the teacher if their kid fails the test.

sadly, you're right. no adult is going to listen to a kid ref but really they should have an experience guy leading the game officials but knowing how spread thin they are doing the weekends... this might not work for all the best intentions they had when crafting this rule.

yes there is
